JDK-8028563 - Remove javac support for 6/1.6 source and target values
Description
In the course of developing the changes to implement JDK-8028563, the resource key compiler.err.feature.not.supported.in.source was dropped from the set of keys generated in output.

While the key may no longer be outputted with the set of current features with enums in Source, that should be verified.
Comments
The resource key is used in Source.java as part of the Source.Feature mechanism, with specific instances seen in the rest of javac. Closing as Not An Issue.
